Actor Bishop Umoh tackles corrupt politicians, internet fraudsters
Nigerian comic actor Bishop Umoh better known as Okon of Lagos has taken to his Instagram page to slam corrupt politicians and internet fraudsters, otherwise known as Yahoo boys for their dubious ways of making money.
In his lengthy Instagram post, Okon reprimanded yahoo boys, telling them to unfollow him with immediate effect.
The actor stated that yahoo boys are not heroes, neither are they ‘Robin Hoods’ because they keep stealing from innocent people just to make themselves wealthy.
For the politicians involved in nefarious activities, Okon berated them for stealing the collective commonwealth of the poor people they were elected or appointed to lead and provide for.
